Phetchabun Hospital Addresses Controversy Over Supercar Parking

Phetchabun Hospital has responded to public criticism following an incident where a group of ten supercars was parked in a restricted area in front of the hospital building. The controversy began on September 24, 2026, when images of the luxury vehicles circulated on social media, drawing comparisons to the difficulties ordinary visitors face when trying to find parking for patients.

According to the hospital, security personnel attempted to warn the drivers that the area was off-limits. However, the group reportedly ignored the instructions, parked their vehicles, and proceeded into the building to visit friends who were hospitalized following a road accident near Phu Thap Boek. The incident has fueled public frustration, as many residents report being turned away from the same area by security, forcing them to circle the facility multiple times or park far away, which causes significant hardship for elderly patients and their families.

For residents and visitors, this incident highlights ongoing concerns regarding the transparency and consistency of parking management at public medical facilities. While the hospital has acknowledged the event, questions remain regarding whether any formal action will be taken against the drivers for violating hospital regulations. The hospital has not yet clarified if they will implement stricter enforcement measures to ensure that parking policies are applied equally to all visitors regardless of their vehicle type.
